The Cyber View from the Hill

Roosters 200th Game

Season is underway and Souths came back to earth with a thump. In a game where we made too many errors and then went on to also make too many missed tackles. The interesting thing however is away from these two items our general stats around kicking game, effective 1st tackles, meters gained are pretty good.

Pettybourne Broken Jaw

Eddy played for 58 min with a broken jaw after a head clash with Anasta. In Sattler like feat he stayed on to not let his team mates down.

Injuries

2010 is a year where injuries are starting to hit us harder than we have in the past. Over the weekend Pettybourne, Best, Falloon and Simpson were all injured and Capewell missed the match. This on top of injuries to Ross, Crocker, McQueen, Corrigan and Morgan is starting to already test our depth.

ARL Commission

The ARL voted last Thursday to support the formation of the ARLC where the NSWRL and QRL will now be added with one vote each making it now 18 votes, with the right of veto on any constitutional changes. ARL and News Ltd will now nominate the inital 8 board members. In the background there have been a number of high profile club CEO meeting discussing the way forward. With our own Nick Pappas representing Souths and adding his legal expertese. With Shane Richardson on the IC setup team.
